What happened?

Due to the recent developments, I have decided to make this community moderator-only. There has been a mass spam attack involving gore and nudity. This is now a very serious situation and it is clear that something has to be done to stop this from happening. The new messages might be from a different, psychopathic spammer.

What we decided to do about it

To have better control of this situation, we decided to lock down the community, except for the comment section on this very post. (Please let me know if I've missed a post)

Rules

Please refrain to further spread the newest spam image, especially uncensored versions of it.
The "It's my girlfriend!"-joke is long gone. Be respectful, stop using it.

Going forward

Our main goal now is to stop the spread of spam on Lemmy. This seems like a major problem in Lemmy's concept, so we need to work together to create a working solution to the spam and potential defacing of users.

Update: The source of the gore images has been identified, so it's safe to say it's not actually the same person as "Nicole". Still fucked up, though.

I didn't mean to imply that it had anything to do with me in that sense. Just that maybe the same guy who stalked me on here could be the same person behind the Nicole spam.

The creepy vibes I had from him also seemed to match up for the kind of person who would do the Nicole spam--someone who takes the smallest slight and blows it up and goes for revenge and just doesn't stop. Goes to the trouble of setting up and using bots to downvote my every post. Alt names just to follow me and give me shit and downvote. Took glee in taunting that I'd snap and quit Lemmy--which he also mentioned several times.

Definitely the same kind of guy who would take offense when some random girl doesn't give him attention, so he captures pics of her and spams all of Lemmy to creep her out and make her look bad.

But there are lots of weirdos like that in the world I guess.

(Special shout-out to the Lemmy's who supported his harassment of me though. That kind of toxic behavior doesn't help Lemmy.)
